IMPORTANT FOR PRICE ACTION

Candlestick Chart
The concept of candlestick charts came from Japan. That is why they are often referred
to as Japanese candlestick charts. These charts are the most versatile and popular
form of chart representation. Price behavior during each time unit is represented in the
form of a candle. If the closing price of a stock is higher than open price during a
particular time period, then the candle is green, if the close price is below the open price
then the candle is red. Each candle has a body and two wicks. The distance between open
to close is represented by the body of a candle and the upper and lower wicks
represent the highs and lows of a candle.
Candlestick chart is special not only because it adds a special visual clarity about the
price action, but also because often a single candle stick or two or three consecutive
candlesticks together form a pattern that indicate reversal of a prior move or give
conviction on continuation of the ongoing move. These are called candlestick
patterns. We will discuss about them in due course of time
Trends
Often market movements happen in the form of trends. A price trend is a continuous or
a directional price movement in upward or downward direction. We call them up -
trend and down -trend respectively. Now if we look at price action in market through
charts, we will find that no price movement happens in a straight line.
Suppose we are looking at a broader uptrend represented as primary move, we may find
intermediate corrections represented as secondary trend and minor counter moves
among the secondary moves represented as minor trend. This is how the market behaves
generally in both the up and the down trends
Market Trends
primary Trend
Often an up- trend is represented in the form of a sequence of higher highs and higher
lows. Similarly a downtrend is represented as a sequence of lower lows and lower
highs. A trend is said to reverse when the sequence is broken.

Trend Reversal

We should remember a simple point that market is not trending all the time. Often the
market consolidates within a small range and goes nowhere. Then suddenly it can
break on the upside or downside.

Trendline and Channels are one of the most simple and useful tools in the
market. During an uptrend, a trendline is formed by joining lowest points of
periodic pull-backs, defined as secondary moves in the previous section. The up-
trend line has positive slope. To be precise we need two lows to join to form a
trendline during an up-move. This line is then extended in the upward direction;
the third move towards the trend-line is used to validate the trend line. If the
trend line is not broken in the pull back, then it is called trend-line validation.
It is often observed that price pulls back towards the trend line and moves
higher. In an uptrending market it is often easier to make money if one buys
near the trend line and sells higher. The more number of time the trend-line is
validated, more important it becomes. An upward trend line is said to be the
area of support. The selling pressure meets the buying pressure here and
eventually overtime when buying pressure is higher than selling pressure price
sees an upward bounce.

stoploss
Now when one buys he or she is looking for the prices to move higher. But this
may or may not happen. Hence the investor should maintain a stop loss point
below which he-or she should cut his position, i.e. book loss. When a trend line
is broken, either the market may reverse the trend, continue the uptrend with
little less force or just go sideways

Downtrend

Similar to an uptrend-line, when a down trending trend line is broken the trend may
continue with less pace, or reverse or may go side-ways. A downward trend line is said
to be area of resistance. The selling pressure meets the buying pressure here and
eventually overtime when selling pressure is higher than buying pressure price sees a
decline.
Triangles
65
Triangles are one of the most well-known chart patterns used in technical
analysis. The three most common types of triangles, which vary in
construction and implications, are Symmetrical Triangle, Ascending
Triangle and Descending Triangle. These chart patterns are considered to
last anywhere from a couple of weeks (ideally more than 12 weeks) to
several months. These are areas of consolidations after a trending move
and are generally continuation patterns, i.e. the erstwhile trends resumes
after the breakout. However, in certain cases they act as reversal patterns.
They can appear both in up-trend and down-trend.

closing price
A shooting star is just like a mirror image of a hammer candle. First there
should be a sustained up trend and then there has to be a gap up opening.
The bulls should push price higher in the initial part of the day. Then, later
in the day bears should take in the control of the stock and push prices
down. Eventually the closing price should be very close to the opening
price, resulting in a candle with a small green or red body, a big upper
shadow and a small or negligible lower shadow. The upper shadow of the
candle should be at least twice the length of the body. Now a confirmation
of the shooting star pattern comes if price moves below the low of the
candle within next 2-3 candles. On confirmation, a short trade should be
taken with stop loss above the high of the high of the candle. A shooting
star pattern with a red body is considered slightly more bearish than one
with a green body. It is often observed that shooting star candlestick
pattern acts as bearish reversal pattern and triggers a down move after an
uptrend.

Bullish Engulfing Pattern
Doji
The Doji is a single candlestick pattern. The Doji assumes significance, when
it appears after a trending move, be it up or down. The Doji symbolizes
indecision and after a Doji the incumbent trend can reverse, go sideways or
continue uptrend. However, appearance of a Doji is a signal of caution that
the probability is high that the erstwhile trend may be coming to an end.
Doji is a candle which has open and close almost at similar level. There can
be upper shadows and lower shadows of various proportions.
